Monel / Monel®400

UNS N04400

 

Monel®400 is a nickel-copper alloy that is hardened by cold working only. Monel®400 has low corrosion rate in flowing seawater, therefore it is widely used in marine applications. Monel®400 also has excellent resistance to stress corrosion cracking in most freshwaters. Monel®400 can be used in temperatures up to 1000 ºF. The alloy has great mechanical properties at subzero temperatures.
